pressure to resign on elected prime minister. hello and welcome to r t where we bring you the latest news from around the world on screen and on mon twenty four hours a day seven days a week now crowds have gathered in central madrid where people are once again protesting against tough spending cuts the country faces its fifth austerity budget in a row but despite the government's efforts it continues to slide deeper into recession artie's jacob greaves is in madrid. we've had more people probably turning out as an early period in the past to protest they've lined the streets in the thousands blocking traffic now so far there hasn't been too much disruption to industry street protesters and police like we saw on tuesday police charged protesters now
4:02 pm
there they fired rubber bullets into the crowd thirty people being detained there we saw a similar sonora presented a wednesday as well this could be one the problems that facing the police at the moment is that there's always going to be a hardcore few hundred out of this thousand are willing to stay here or there and just stare to the message until the very end and they're the ones that trouble arises when they try and clear them out now much he joined by jose and now jose is a member of the twenty fifth september movement who would be quite pivotal becomes organizing this so what you want from these demonstrations well i would say that we want to let them know let everyone know that these two a shiny some variable and that we are fed we are fed up with so many lies and that we know that inside that building there is no suffering to you at all and that there that that those who rule us is not those that we vote for i want to comes to the recent budget just announced song thursday we saw forty billion euros again cut do you feel like it's not being listened to now i mean is just one step more in the
4:03 pm
same direction are they taking those steps against the people and for their companies are not even the spanish that it takes an ethereal government that we have so that's why we say in here those who have been quite critical of this new era said that perhaps the idea is a bit too lofty when it comes to the dissolution of parliament jury think you can achieve those games i mean i mean i don't care i just want to make the statement that these can not continue like this i mean that they're not ruling they're just obeying orders from europe orders from the from the financial markets is just trying to give the people the idea the possibility to think of a war of words governments govern for people and not for companies thank you very much oh this so comes on the back. a very austere budget is to see forty billion euros in terms of cuts now this is mainly targeted ministries also extended a freeze when it comes to public sector pay for the third year running when the price of problems facing prime minister a hoary and his government at present is that no matter how many cuts they make the
4:04 pm
boring costs in spain are significantly rising two thousand and thirteen especially go up from nine billion euros to thirty six billion euros that's going to slash away any savings they make through this very unpopular austerity country supporting the syrian rebels need to stop science stopping the u.n. and demand both sides of the conflict a lay down their arms that's the message from russia's foreign minister sergey lavrov said that some foreign forces are in fact urging al qaeda linked militants in syria to fire on his artie's marina or nine from new york. russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov talks about a variety of issues but clearly syria dominated his speech foreign minister lavrov says he believes and russia believes there's still an opportunity to and the conflict in crisis in syria but it will require some fierce international consensus he says the international community must come together to demand a cease fire in syria by both the government and the opposition to demand the
4:05 pm
release of prisoners and hostages and allow for humanitarian assistance russia's foreign minister said that he believes that one of the very big problems is that all members that signed the geneva communique are not fulfilling their responsibilities and obligations he said is very important for the six point peace plan that kofi annan outlined many months ago for that peace plan to be the foundation of which there could eventually be. resolved to the crisis that's escalating in syria but he said what is most troubling for russia is that many western countries that are supporting the opposition are only demanding for the syrian government to cease fire but are looking the other way when the syrian opposition is waging very deadly attacks those who oppose the implementation of the geneva communiqué so they could put themselves an enormous responsibility if they insist on a ceasefire only by the government and encourage the opposition to intensify and.
4:06 pm
push syria even deeper into the abyss of blood stream extremist organizations including have become even syrian bitrate attacks against innocent civilians and civilian infrastructure. foreign minister lavrov said another serious concern is the use of unilateral sanctions particularly by western countries he believes that these unilateral sanctions taken outside of the united nations for example in syria the u.s. and european countries imposing reduces the credibility first and foremost of the security council and also can escalate humanitarian crisis further foreign minister lavrov said that at this point it is a very important time he believes for international relations to come together and the credibility to not be compromised even further by their by their being many divisions within the u.n.
4:07 pm
in the security council on a variety of issues. inside syria travel and government forces have launched fresh offensives in the crucial for a second city of aleppo in what's being called an unprecedented assault dozens have reportedly been killed in the past twenty four hours with heavy weapons allegedly use five sides this comes as the u.s. sends more support worth forty five million dollars to the syrian opposition let's get some reaction now from in the kind of political analyst dan glazebrook down thank you so much for joining r.t. today now russia has reiterated calls for what it calls a balanced solution to the syrian conflict why aren't more countries supporting moscow's proposals. that's a good question because not only moscow those making these proposals a week ago in damascus the national coordination committee which is actually the main organization behind the initial outbreak of peaceful protests in syria actually had his own conference where they also called for
4:08 pm
a cease fire on both sides they criticized the militarization of the of the conflict they criticize those countries that are in arming the rebels and how do we see even how the western trained and sponsored militias on the ground in syria have responded they responded with a wave of bomb attacks over two days in damascus the crucial point where the west there has to be borne in mind the west does not want to see a peaceful resolution to this conflict it wants to destabilize that's the name of the game they don't want to peaceful resolution they don't want any compromise because one of their main strategic games remember their main strategic aim is to destroy syria as a functioning independent state because at the moment syria is part of the alliance with iran in his well or now his ball is in the pentagon's stance was shown by hezbollah as defeat of israel in two thousand and six that the one thing protecting the palestinians from israel just unilaterally imposing some kind of once and for
4:09 pm
all p. . deal so-called in the palestinians that would condemn them forever for living in little can tones in a sea of israeli settlements the one thing preventing israel doing that is the existence of hizbollah arming of hizbollah by iran and syria and the leader of his well himself said syria was crucial in the two thousand and six victory against israel so the west is determined to keep this war going to destabilize syria to make sure there cannot any longer play the role that it has been playing in supporting the palestinians and preventing an israeli attack successful israeli attack on the palestinians on lebanon and on iran once syria falls the hope is for the west. that they will then have a free hand to be able to implement and go ahead and roll out their program of a final solution for the palestinians destruction of southern lebanon destruction of iran syria is the kind of lynchpin that so far they don't want to peaceful
4:10 pm
solution does washington now pledging forty five million dollars worth of extra support to the rebels how much longer can the opposition keep up the fight without direct foreign intervention. i think we have to we have to get over the idea that there is no foreign direct intervention there is there is direct current intervention already now and it has been for many many months there are groups on the ground calling them so of the free syrian army. that are actually entire units made up of libyans of lebanese people from jordan from saudi arabia they are being armed as we know equipped but also trained by the s.a.'s and cia camps in turkey in fact if the situation in libya the war in libya of last years anything to go on from what we know happened there they're actually probably under the direct come on the british and u.s. army offices so i don't think it's true to say that the current situation is one
4:11 pm
without foreign direct intervention the other thing to bear in mind is the forty five million of aid from the us that you mentioned is just the tip of the iceberg. most of the weapons in the funding for the west proxy war against syria is going through is being channeled through saudi arabia and through qatar. just britain alone for example last year provided one point seven five billion pounds worth of weapons to saudi arabia how much of that is ending up now in the hands of these proxy militias so that forty five million figure is actually the tip of the ice and it's very tricky of that the u.s. and britain and britain particular often says it's just providing non-lethal equipment communications equipment night vision goggles this kind of thing but actually it is providing weapons it's just doing it through third parties the question of how long can this be this will go on. is a good question i mean is not is not clear they did they can't they can really when i don't think these rebel groups because they don't have support even of most of
4:12 pm
the and yet i've sort of as i mentioned the main peaceful opposition group doesn't really support the strategy of the free syrian army doesn't support the syrian national council. and. and in the chief cities of aleppo and damascus the population was well and more than half of the syrian population lives most of the population behind the government supports the government so a couple of weeks ago a free syrian army also netted him so so the problem for us here in aleppo is seventy percent of the population is a boy and has always been that way so they can't win with that lack of popular support unfortunately because they're getting this huge flood of weapons from outside they can continue to destabilize so that's unfortunately they may be able to keep that war going for some time doesn't mean they're actually able to win all right live from the u.k. independent political analysts down glazebrook thank you for your time ok thank you and so have for you later on r t the disillusioned and disciplined charts. when
